For the second straight year, the Minnesota Lynx took the court in the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup Championship Game, coming out of the Western Conference to fight against the Indiana Fever out of the Eastern Conference for a prize pool awarded to the winning team.
But this year, it didn’t end the way 2024 did for the Lynx with the Fever — without Caitlin Clark with a groin injury — coming into Target Center and defeating Minnesota 74-59 to claim the Cup trophy and the extra money awarded.
Since the Commissioner’s Cup Championship doesn’t count towards the regular season records, the Lynx remain 14-2 and atop the WNBA while the Fever remain at 8-8 on the year.
